Artist Statement
I am captivated by the extraordinary alchemy of the human brain: how it weaves intricate stories about ourselves and the world, stories often far removed from objective reality, yet essential for our survival. This invisible editor within us constantly shapes our sense of self, crafting the fragile boundaries between "I" and "you," identity and otherness, without our conscious awareness.
“Imagine a world where we could unlock this mysterious mechanism, where rewriting our internal narratives becomes a radical act of social change.”
My work is a deliberate invitation to listen deeply: not only to the voices around us but to the hidden scripts guiding our every thought and action. In nurturing this radical self-awareness, we begin to recognize the threads that connect us all, awakening a profound empathy for each other and the living planet we inhabit.
Mind You
“If you acknowledge perception as prediction, then it becomes natural to think that the self is not the thing that does the perceiving. The self is a perception.”
― neuroscientist Anil Seth
Through the immersive alchemy of music, inner dialogue and the electric synergy between audience and environment, I seek to illuminate the unseen and give voice to the unheard.
This is not mere art — it is an act of awakening, a call to rewrite the stories we live by and imagine a future shaped by compassion, connection, and shared understanding.
This 30-minute interactive performance also empowers organizations to celebrate diversity, address inequity, engage leaders and teams, and foster inclusivity.
Solastalgia
“The homesickness we feel while still at home."―Glenn Albrecht, professor of Sustainability
Solastalgia is the pain and longing we feel as we realize the world immediately around us is changing, with our love for that world serving as a catalyst for action on its behalf.
Transforming my off-grid tiny house into a sound art installation, I blend nature and machinery into a living soundtrack. Visitors interact, altering the ever evolving melodies, spark new rhythms or create complete chaos.
This work urges reflection on our disconnection from nature and invites us to redefine our collaboration with the planet and each other.

“Memory is not a simple replay. The bits of information that we recover from the past are often influenced by our knowledge, beliefs and feelings." Harvard professor and psychologist dr. Daniel L. Schacter
This project studies memory using detailed sounds like laughter, sirens, beeps and bird calls, that were audible during prescious moments of my personal life.
In the studio I manipulate the sound ingredients — like pitch, texture, and frequency — until they lose all reference to the personal moment.
New rhythms and melodies arise, creating a music piece that redefine the memory.
It explores the gap between true memory and personal stories, encouraging listeners to rethink how their own memories are to be understood.
